It’s holiday season which means fruit pies and crisps are in abundance. And what is needed when it comes to hot, fresh of pie on Thanksgiving? Vanilla ice cream 🙂 I love ice cream and my favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip from Baskin Robbins. Or toasted almond from Leatherby’s. If we buy ice cream […]
Sometimes you just need chocolate. Rich, dark, ooey-gooey chocolate. With maybe some caramel deliciousness. And nuts. Lots of nuts. I used to be a firm believer in always keeping a box of brownie mix on hand. You never know when that craving will strike! I’m happy to say though, I’ve been converted to an “always […]
About a month after the wedding, we spent a week in the Bahamas for our honeymoon. Which means yes, I’m almost two years behind writing this. I was just going to forget about it completely until I started looking back at the pictures and had so much fun reliving the trip, I had to share […]
Hi guys! Just a quick note to let you know: we made you a playlist! Yep…an end of summer playlist. Just for you. If you’ve been following the Simply Living girls (and you should be) you know they post a new playlist each month. Well, since Hannah is currently abroad, Suruchi asked if we would make […]
We promise we did more than just eat while in Portland! We went shopping, walked around NW Portland, drove through neighborhoods picking out potential dream homes, met new friends and almost got tattoos! (well only Kelly) One of our favorite parts of the trip, however, was our hike in Eagle Creek to Punchbowl Falls and […]
Today we have a guest post by Kelly’s friend, Anna! She made this amazing Valentine’s Chocolate Cake for her boyfriend over the weekend and it was a hit! Anna and Kelly were in the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority together at USC. She currently lives in Seattle, WA. Thanks for sharing with us, Anna! Valentine’s Day was this […]
I love breakfast just as much as the next person, maybe even more. Give me some eggs, toast and hash browns and I’m good to go. And there has to be hash browns. I really don’t love cooking breakfast though, especially not for just one person. It makes such a mess! There’s a pan for the eggs, […]
Before I begin, this isn’t technically pie- there is no crust. But, it’s baked in a pie tin so I took the creative liberties of calling it a pie. Cool? Great! So this Caramel Pretzel Brownie Pie… it’s delicious! I have been on huge caramel kick lately. I was sick all last week and caramel […]
Before I’d moved to Louisiana, the furthest south I’d ever been was Washington, D.C. Does that count!? Is D.C. even considered to be in the South?? Now that we’re down here, we plan on making the most of our time in a new area and traveling as much as we can. Case in point, of the […]
I don’t know about you, but I could eat pizza every single day and never get tired of it. I like it cold for breakfast, I’ll take leftovers for lunch, it’s never a bad idea for dinner and I am always on board with it for a late night snack. As much as I love eating […]
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” -The Declaration of Independence I love the 4th of July. Not because of the barbeque, or the fireworks, or because […]
Sure, fall means pumpkin spice everything, but fall also means FOOTBALL! We’re pretty big football fans here at LDB. Kelly is a USC alum (fight on!) and Steph went to Boise State (go broncos!) so football games are a fall tradition for us. The tailgating and viewing parties may be more fun than the actual […]
It’s December 8th. The Reed Wedding is on May 16th. Today I decided that I really needed to increase my wedding cake practice. Because I’m obviously running out of time… Today I went Christmas shopping. However, I did not buy any gifts. Instead, I bought cake decorating supplies for myself. I promise I’m not a […]
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been binge watching The Americans all week or because the weather is slightly chilly but I’ve been on a sugar kick lately. And it’s time to cut back. Obviously judging from the title though, I’m taking baby steps to cutting out sugar. It’s a process… Last week I did […]
